Juniors definitely can rush. Some houses will be more amenable to this than others.
They will have a few concerns that you’ll want to be prepared for: 1) they’ll wonder why you didn’t rush earlier (this is easy, since you were a transfer), 2) they’ll worry about whether you’ll be able to relate to your pledge brothers, who will be mostly freshmen and some sophomores, and 3) they’ll worry about whether you’ll be able to show respect to actives in the house who have more seniority than you, but might be younger in terms of age.
These are all things that you can demonstrate during rush. Just show that you’re able to interact well with other rushees, that you understand what’s involved in pledging a fraternity, and that you’re genuinely enthusiastic.
Also, if you’re a sophomore in terms of credits, just emphasize that and consider yourself a sophomore…
